Property Description
Welcome to 551 West 3rd Street, a 4-bedroom, 3.5 bathroom home featuring over 4,500 square feet of finished living space in central Elmhurst. As you enter through the front door, the grand two-story foyer welcomes you into a home with stylish, modern updates. Fresh paint and new lighting throughout give the space a bright and contemporary feel. The kitchen is a highlight, featuring hardwood floors, white cabinetry, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances, including a double oven. With a large walk-in pantry, island, and plentiful cabinetry, storage won't be an issue. There's even a handy planning desk for organizing daily activities. The layout flows effortlessly from the kitchen to the dining and family rooms, and out to a fully fenced backyard-ideal for gatherings of all sizes. On the main floor, you'll also find a formal living room, a powder room, and a convenient laundry room. Upstairs, the four generously-sized bedrooms and two full bathrooms ensure plenty of space for everyone. The spacious primary ensuite boasts a beautiful bay window, a walk-in closet, and a bathroom with a soaking tub, shower, linen closet, water closet, and dual-sink vanity. One bedroom even features a massive walk-in closet above the garage, perfect for a playroom, study area, or extra storage. The finished basement adds even more functional space, with a large rec room complete with a gas fireplace and wet bar. There's also a cozy spot for a home office and an area that's currently a kids' play space but could easily be turned into a bedroom with its own egress window. This home provides easy access to all the amenities Elmhurst has to offer and great schools (Hawthorne Elementary, choice of Sandburg or Churchville Middle Schools and York High School).
